Artist edition?

If you've never been too good with a paint, clay, marble and other traditional tools of the artist, or found they were too expensive and still lacked basic features like 'Undo' and 'Replace all', we have a solution for you - our Mashup Server!

Yes, mashups are now ART, because the Museum of Modern Art included some in this exhibition. Good thing we're making the server 'skinnable' for the next release; maybe in addition to the 'professional' UI out of the box and the 'fun' UI that we did for the community site, we can put together a stylesheet with psychedelic colours for the people out there who don't really care for service composition, but do like to create pretty pictures!

Jonathan, the artist who drew up the initial sketch for the Mashup Server did a demo at TechEd a couple of days back and has blogged about it. Though this demo didn't actually highlight the Mashup Server, but featured WSAS which is at it's core instead, the Mashup team grabbed front row seats to watch the webcast on our cool new HD projection system!
